SkyWatcher 6″ Dobsonian Telescope

• Most Practical Astronomy Instruments
• Outstanding Light Gathering Ability
• Super-smooth Azimuth Movement
• Tension Control System
• 2″ Focuser with a 1.25″ Adapter

Sky-Watcher Dobsonian Telescopes are popular among amateur astronomers for being able to get large aperture sizes at affordable price, is one of the most practical optical instruments in world of astronomy. Designed to be simple, Sky-Watcher Dobsonian consists of 2 parts: a solid tube and a wooden mount, almost immediately allows you to start your observation sessions without spending time on setup.

The Sky-Watcher 6″ Dobsonian is a large aperture newtonian reflector telescope with f/8 focal ratio, make it ideal for wide field and deep-sky observation. Big aperture means better light gathering power, with this Sky Watcher Telescopes, you are able to see prominent deep-sky object such as nebulae, star cluster and many more. Come with a 2″ focuser with a 1.25″ adapter, users are allow to use either eyepiece size.

Tension Control System
Allows you to adjust the friction setting, to increase or reduce the amount of resistance when moving the tube on the wooden mount, so you always have the appropriate resistance setting. The secret of the design is to correctly balance the optical tube with special designed handles on the base, adds enough friction and tension to allow the tube to move easily when nudged but to stay in position when not.
